Seville Grove has been designed around a Conservation Category wetland, which has significant environmental value and provides quality natural amenity.
Although formerly degraded, the wetland has been restored to ensure it is the centrepiece of the innovative development - which has been enhanced through ecological sensitive design.
As part of the redevelopment program, 55 mature grass trees from the site have been relocated to the wetland area. This program is just one example of the State Government addressing its commitment to reduce the impact on the local environment during construction of the estate.
Adopting an integrated approach, a Wetland Management Plan ensures natural groundwater conditions are mimicked by the estate to ensure minimal environmental impact. The plan incorporates roadside infiltration swales to assist with recharging groundwater.
An easily accessible raised "nature walk" boardwalk through the wetland ensures everyone can enjoy this wonderful natural asset. A range of information boards and areas for playing, resting and relaxing are all designed to help protect the fragile area and educate the community.
